UPDATEAs of November 15, 2016 Flint residences still do not have clean drinking water. The public has been distracted by the 2016 elections and the post-election protests while communities feeling the full weight of the collapsing internal structures of the American empire have taken to social media to keep their story and struggle on the minds of the world. The Flint water crisis, now having lingered for over two years, may not be considered a newsworthy story anymore for the dead corporate mainstream media, however the hearts and minds of America will not allow the willful public neglect and purposeful injury continuing in Flint to be forgotten.
